Summary

In the Linux kernel iwlwifi driver (mvm subsystem), there is an off-by-one boundary check error. Before reading the 11th byte, the length is not checked to be sufficient, potentially leading to out-of-bounds read.

Risk Assessment

This could allow an attacker to read data beyond the buffer, potentially leading to information disclosure or system crash.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that adds proper length checking before the read.
